Variance is a key concept in CrossFit. Repetition is also valuable to improvement and mastery. So how do we keep up with both of these ideas that may seem at odds. This week is a good example day one of the cycle we did overhead squats relatively heavy for ten sets of 2 we followed that up with a triplet including sets of 8 overhead squats done without a rack at much lighter weight and today we will power snatch sets of three to finish out the cycle. The movement is repetitive and yet very different each time. We are getting the adaptation by repetition while keeping our tenant of variance.
